Nice shoot, but it's rather insulting to call them "trannies"

Oh so awesome! Very artistic yet funny! Some of the trannys down there you need to look twice to see of they are a man or woman, some are just so pretty!

Damn! What a great shot. This was THE moment! This was THE catch. Everyone in the picture has the fit expression on their faces and bodies.
Damn good. Really.

Absolutely stunning photograph.
(technicality, she's a transexual, not a transvestite. but that's symantics)
The grain adds so much character to the photo. I really see the moment well. Quite a superb capture.

I fear I am the person to swim against the stream, but I think that 35mm would have been better in this shot; I'd love to see a version without the guy but with the girls and the man with the sign! Nevertheless, I like the scene, the carnival-like feeling of it. Wonderful photo!

Hello...
I was wondering if you would be interested in having this or another piece published in an Art Book benefit for Hurricane Katrina victims.

You would retain all rights to the piece and all proceeds from the book (which will be sold at cross-country independent bookstores, galleries, coffee shops, and venues) will go to the Red cross & the Salvation Army.

If you're interested, please let me know at calltoaction2005@gmail.com and view our website at [link]

Thanks and good luck with your art work!

Not to be a cynic, but do you think ones looking to support the people of New Orleans by buying a magazine are going to want a photo like this?

Don't get me wrong, your work is great *Trueblood , but this photo wouldn't be *my* first pick for a book to support the disaster.

oh wait never mind... is there a section for mature...? got it. good question. Dunno, no breasts exposed, and it's not anything everyone else on Bourbon street wasn't seeing. But then again, a lot of stuff happens on that street that kids in Wyoming might not want to see...
